Summary

[edit]
Author
George Romney
Description
English: Emma Hart, 1765-1815, later Lady Hamilton, as Cassandra

original art: drawing. Inscribed below image 'Cassandra (Portrait of the celebrated Lady Hamilton)'. An attached label also states: 'Drawn on blotting paper by Romney and given by him to Meyer one of the original Academicians [Jeremiah Meyer 1735-89]. From him it passed to his relations the Haverfields and later came into the hands of their relation Miss Blackley who left it to me, L.B.L.' It is apparently on a coarse and perhaps absorbent laid paper rather than 'blotting paper', which did not exist in Romney's time. Meyer was a friend of Romney's, a well-known miniaturist and one of the earliest Royal Academicians. [PvdM 3/05]

Licensing

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
